Super Detective in the Fictional World Chapter 270 – Big Reveal

Chapter 270 Big Reveal

Observing the room from the door for quite a while, Luke confirmed his findings with Sharp Nose again before he closed the door.

He went downstairs and called Selina. “Where are the maids’ rooms?”

Selina asked Jennifer, and soon replied, “The rooms are on the first floor below Jennifer’s room. Manny’s room is the one with the blue door, Millis’s room has a red door.”

Luke hung up when he was standing outside the rooms.

Neither room was locked, but Luke didn’t enter. He simply activated Sharp Nose again.

A moment later, he went to the garden, an even stranger expression on his face. He sat down in front of Jennifer in the garden and asked, “Miss Perry, did you notice anything wrong when Millis was wounded last night?”

Jennifer said calmly, “No. I didn’t feel well last night, and I went to bed early. I didn’t hear anything.”

Luke remarked, “That’s understandable. I can tell that your room must be soundproof.”

Jennifer nodded. “I have trouble sleeping and any noise will wake me up, so my room has to be quiet.”

Luke asked, “How long have your maids been working for you?” After a brief silence, Jennifer said, “Manny will have worked for me for three years in two months. Millis has been here for fourteen months.”

Luke asked, “Are they close?”

Jennifer said calmly, “I think they’re okay. At least, I’ve never seen them fight.”

Luke coughed and said, “Do you allow your employees to engage in romantic relationships with each other?”

Jennifer was stunned. “What?”

Luke asked with an odd expression, “If a security guard falls in love with a maid, will you fire them?”

Jennifer nodded quickly. “Of course; it’s stipulated in their contract when they’re hired, since it may affect their work. I believe the police have similar rules, right?”.

Luke nodded and said, “Yes. So, you’re unaware of any sort of relationship like that here?”

Jennifer was stunned. “Huh?” Luke said, “In other words, you didn’t sense that any of them were together, otherwise someone would’ve been fired, right?”

After a brief silence, Jennifer nodded and said, “Yes.”

Luke said, “Okay, that’s all for now. Miss Perry, you can stay here or get some rest somewhere outside; it’s going to be a while before forensics is done.”

Jennifer said, “Got it. I’ll be right here. I won’t cause any trouble.”

Luke nodded and left with Selina.

After they left the house, Selina asked, “Did you find anything?”

an

Luke said, “I can roughly guess who hurt Manny, but I can’t determine a motive.”

Selina urged him, “Just spill.”

Luke said, “Let’s talk in the car. Don’t talk about a case in an unsecure environment, remember?”

Selina immediately shut up.

Actually, this was an understanding between the both of them.

It wasn’t just work cases; their secrets, such as some of Luke’s movements or their equipment, weren’t to be discussed in an unsecure environment.

If Luke was capable of making a gadget to remotely eavesdrop on his targets, it was possible that other people had similar equipment.

After they got into the car, Luke pressed a button to make sure that it was safe. Then he said, “Manny was attacked by the security guard named Morgan James.”

Selina didn’t say anything and simply waited for him to finish.

Luke chuckled. “Morgan is in a secret relationship with Millis, who was hurt last night.”

Selina’s eyes glowed when she heard the exciting news.

Luke continued, “Manny, on the other hand, is in a relationship with Thomson, the head of security.”

“Oh my god!” Selina asked in shock, “Why was Manny attacked? Was it because she discovered that Millis and Morgan were in a relationship? But that’s just a job. There’s no need to kill her, right?”

Luke chuckled and took out his phone. “Boss, I need a search warrant for Jennifer’s house.”

Elsa was surprised. “Why? You know that this may cause trouble. If the big star is upset, she may hire a lawyer specifically to file a complaint against you.”

Luke said, “I know, so I’m only asking for a warrant to search the rooms of the maids and the security guards, not her own room.”

Elsa was relieved to hear that.

All of the security guards were suspects, and it was routine to search their rooms, so she said, “Okay, I’ll apply for it.”

Luke said, “Boss, I need a warrant ASAP. Certain evidence may disappear when forensics is done and those people return to their rooms.”

Elsa immediately realized that Luke had found something, and the search warrant was meant to help preserve legitimate evidence.

She said, “An electronic search warrant will be sent to your phone in ten minutes at most.”

In fact, Luke received an electronic search warrant on his phone after just five minutes.

Luke and Selina got out and went back inside. They found Jennifer in the garden and showed her the search warrant.

Jennifer’s face immediately changed. “You can’t do that.”

Then, she realized that both Luke and Selina were looking at her with smiles, as if they were expecting her to change her stance.

Jennifer gritted her teeth. “I’m going to call my lawyer.” Luke grinned. “Miss Perry, even if you call your lawyer, it’ll take him at least an hour to find the judge and cancel the search warrant. Our search will be done by then. Do you think that’s going to help?” Jennifer looked even more awful. “What do you want?”

She, too, knew that her lawyer couldn’t help, but there were certain things in her home that couldn’t be found out.

What she was scared of was the paparazzi who was fanatical about her private affairs, not the police.

Luke didn’t stop smiling. “Miss Perry, we’re police detectives, here on a case. Two serious assaults that could’ve turned into murder happened here.”

Jennifer hesitated, her expression changing. “What are you trying to say?”
